In this story:
Oklahoma City looks to continue their home dominance with the Hawks on deck.
The Thunder look to begin wrapping up their January schedule that has seen them reach new heights. The Thunder continue to reach a .500 record as the season draws closer to the All-Star Break.
The OKC injury report isn’t lengthy, but the missing players are key. Aleksej Pokusevski remains out with a significant knee injury, which continues to sideline him.
Ousmane Dieng who has missed considerable time with a wrist injury is off of the injury report. Jeremiah Robinson-Earl will once again be absent.
OKC is no stranger to the injury bug as it has struck numerous times throughout the year.
